The environmental superiority of biomass power over fossil fuels is obvious and great. Still, the industry must continue the ongoing pursuit of operation optimization, which includes many components, including selecting the right biomass boiler or emission control technology for a particular operation. The Northeast Biomass Conference & Expo Aug. 4-6 in Boston will address this issue with a panel titled Leveraging Technology for the Clean and Efficient Utilization of Biomass Energy.
John DeFusco of Babcock & Wilcox Co. will kick off the panel by comparing bubbling fluidized bed and stoker boilers, providing insight as to what should influence a decision on selecting an appropriate boiler technology for a specific renewable energy project.
